totaL newb
Hey folks, can you clear this up for me 1. If I were to move £3000 balance from Halifax credit card plus to egg money card I'd pay the Halifax bt fee (3.0%), even though the egg money card has 'no fee'.

Stoozing dying out?
Just a quick, probably naive question but is stoozing on the verge of disappearing with the credit crunch biting? Is it right that fewer and fewer cards are offering 0% introductory periods?

I'm bamboozled! Interest rates when stoozing?
Hi there, I've read the pages on stoozing and understand the main concept of borrowing money and investing it in a high interest account.
